Happy Birthday Harry Potter Indie Collaboration Box

Good morning beauties! The end of July is an exciting time for all us Potter Heads! 7/31 is Harry's birthday!! To celebrate the occasion a group of indie makers got together and created a special box that they could share with you! Paint Box Polish, Firecracker Lacquer, Northern Star Polish and Bliss Polish each contributed a polish to this fun box. You will also get a Pumpkin Juice cuticle oil from Paint Box Polish, a Harry Potter deathly hollows holo sticker and jelly slugs (yum). The Happy Birthday Harry Potter box will be available on 7/31 at 8pm EDT for $36. There will be 36 boxes available - because that's how old Harry is turning. Let's jump in and check out polish!

Up first is I Open At The Close by Firecracker Lacquer. It's a white crelly full of gold holo glitters. This is such a gorgeous polish, it's got a nice clean look and the holo glitters add the perfect amount of bling. I used 3 thin coats for full coverage. Formula was nice and easy to work with. It does dry to a dull finish so you definitely want topcoat to shine it up.

Northern Star Polish created Horcrux of the Matter. It's a walnut brown polish with color shifting flakes, gold shimmer and scattered holo. This is a fantastic brown! Definitely another unique shade and one all the brown lovers will really want. Formula and application were both great. I used 3 thin coats for full coverage and finished with topcoat.

Brave Above All was made by Bliss Polish. It's a burgundy with blue, gold and holo micro flakes and scattered holo. This is a stunning shade of burgundy! And the holo really sparkles. even in low lighting. Formula and application were both fabulous. I used 2 coats to reach opacity and topcaot.

And rounding out the collection is Paint Box PolishHis Mother's Eyes. It's a black polish with green metallic flakes. There's also some blue shimmer in there. This is a deep, dark, brooding but totally beautiful color. The green is much more obvious in real life. Formula was great, easy to apply, opaque coverage. I did notice a few of the flakes were sticking up but topcoat helped smooth them out. I used 2 coats and topcaot.
